The heart of physiological reports

are meritorious in nature but do not quite reach the priority score needed to be competitive for publication in AJP Heart and Circ . In some cases, the findings of the article are deemed by reviewers as being too confirmatory, incremental, or observational without sufficient new mechanistic insight. The findings may be logical but not viewed as sufficiently impactful. Other times, researchers may be limited by funds, resources, or circumstances to perform additional experiments that reviewers have requested to further confirm the stated conclusions. The findings may be commendable for hypothesis generation or advance a specific area of study. For articles such as these, having the option to transfer to Physiol Reports is as reassuring to our editors as to our authors, as we want their efforts to result in publication and be received by the appropriate readership.


E D I T O R I A L The heart of physiological reports
It all started with the first issue in March of 2013 under the ground-breaking and tireless leadership of the inaugural editor-in-chief Dr. Susan Wray, and since that time Physiological Reports (Physiol Reports) has published close to 4000 articles.The purpose of this editorial is to congratulate current editor-in-chief Dr. Josephine C. Adams and her team at Physiol Reports on their milestone 10-year anniversary and to summarize the importance this journal has in the cardiovascular research community.As the executive editorial team of the American Journal of Physiology: Heart and Circulatory Physiology (AJP Heart and Circ), it has been our pleasure to work closely with Physiol Reports in their cascade model to transfer manuscripts not accepted by our journal to our sister publication.
Established as a joint collaboration between the American Physiological Society and the Physiological Society, the mission of Physiol Reports is to publish sound science in basic, translational, and clinical physiology.With a 2022 Cite Score (Scopus) of 4 and a 2022 impact factor (Clarivate) of 2.5 and over 10,000 full text article views in 2023, Physiol Reports has garnered a robust reputation for solid publications.These numbers combined with a current overall acceptance rate of 77% and time to first decision at 20 days make this journal a strong option for publishing your cardiovascular research.
From inception, AJP Heart and Circ has been an active contributor to articles that we refer to Physiol Reports, and our intent is to continue providing this option.We often have submissions that have been rigorously reviewed and This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.© 2024 The Authors.Physiological Reports published by Wiley Periodicals LLC on behalf of The Physiological Society and the American Physiological Society.

We have selected 10 recent articles published in Physiol Reports that are of high interest to the cardiovascular community (Table 1).These articles together illustrate the versatility and range within the cardiac and vascular topic areas that the journal publishes.If you have not read these articles or others published by Physiol Reports, we urge you to take a look.
As Confucius said, "Wherever you go, go with all your heart."Given the number of excellent articles on cardiovascular physiology published, Physiol Reports is doing just that.We congratulate Physiol Reports on an amazing journey as a trusted partner in establishing itself as a source of reliable physiology information and look forward to seeing what the next decade brings.cardiac, cardiovascular, editorial, physiology, vascular
